        must be local people, because the black people that come here rarely go to the beach.

          Chinese would probably be easiest since they have 1.5 billion people to choose from and over 60 ethnicities. You will see some very big people there.

          I just think the culture of Korea, Sri Lanka, and India doesn't produce many boxers in the higher weights because it's not very popular.

          They have their share of big guys in Korea, etc, but India and Sri Lanka don't have a huge international history in boxing.

          Most likely would be China, then Korea.

            The big guys get hired as Bodyguards for the Cartels.

                I take it you're ignorant and just go by the stereotype. I've seen some really huge Mexicans IN Mexico.

                      Maybe it has something to do with bone density. Americans/Europeans seem to carry weight a lot better than Mexicans. You don't see big Mexicans who are mobile as big Americans or big Europeans.
